How To Create a Minimalist Home

I’ve always been amazed by how good some minimalist houses look, and for those who want to know more about minimalist homes I’ve found an artcile on Zenhabits from where you can learn a lot of useful stuff, and create you dream home in a minimalist style. If you are not a big fan of minimalist homes just read the benefits of such a home, and you’ll become a minimalist fan right away.

Less stressful. Clutter is a form of visual distraction, and everything in our vision pulls at our attention at least a little. The less clutter, the less visual stress we have. A minimalist home is calming.

More appealing. Think about photos of homes that are cluttered, and photos of minimalist homes. The ones with almost nothing in them except some beautiful furniture, some nice artwork, and a very few pretty decorations, are the ones that appeal to most of us. You can make your home more appealing by making it more minimalist.

Easier to clean. It’s hard to clean a whole bunch of objects, or to sweep or vacuum around a bunch of furniture. The more stuff you have, the more you have to keep clean, and the more complicated it is to clean around the stuff. Think about how easy it is to clean an empty room compared to one with 50 objects in it. That’s an extreme example, of course, as I wouldn’t recommend you have an empty room, but it’s just to illustrate the difference.

I am following Zen Habits “15 minute rule” and starting to declutter my home. It’s amazing how much of a difference a clean, decluttered, home makes to every aspect of your life… and I am not even DONE yet. A lot of people thought my husband and I were nuts when we started this project but it’s extremely liberating (and it’s amazing how many of my friends followed suit!!) When you can walk into your home and look around and smile, it’s a good feeling. 🙂 I recommend it to everyone. 🙂

People are easily enticed to purchase a home especially when it has a great and relaxing ambiance. The minimalist concept is definitely perfect if one wants to stage their home before having them listed in free property listings and sell them in the real estate market. This article is great.
